OK. I just had a change of plans: I'm going to retain the classic
font selection scheme, but for the non-tex backends, the selection
scheme does not produce a PFA font name, but rather a
PangoFontDescription as a string. For lilypond-book, I'm going to
implement the above, setting --backend=ps as the default.
This is not perfect. Ideally, we'd use FontConfig for fontselection
wholesale, but I don't see how we can mix that with Pango, Design
sizes and the TeX backend.
